Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to see if children and adolescents with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes will benefit from using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), a device that can be used to check blood sugars.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Adolescents with type 1 diabetes, HbA1c ≥9% on insulin pumps were admitted to the clinical research center and a continuous glucose sensor was inserted. Sensor glucose (SG) values were compared to plasma glucose measured at least hourly using Yellow Springs Instrument's (YSI) glucose analyzer. SG rather than YSI was used for treatment decisions unless YSI was \<70 mg/dL or specific criteria indicating SG and YSI were very discordant were met.

CGM in adolescents with poorly-controlled T1D

Adolescents with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes on insulin pumps were admitted to the clinical research center (CRC) and a continuous glucose sensor was inserted. Sensor glucose (SG) values were compared to plasma glucose measured at least hourly using Yellow Springs Instrument's (YSI) glucose analyzer. SG rather than YSI was used for treatment decisions unless YSI was \<70 mg/dL or specific criteria indicating SG and YSI were very discordant were met.
